Choose Positive Living with Sara Troy and her guest Ilene Dillon. On air from July 28th
Emotional Realignment is about developing the ability to work with the emotions we feel the way they are designed to work for us. My investigation began 55 years ago when my husband decided to divorce me, leaving me with a 10 month old child. I was incredibly angry—and alone with a small child. I couldn’t subject her to the on-going anger I was spewing. I set out to find answers: “What Causes Anger? Why do we have anger? Does Anger have a purpose? Can we get rid of it?” There were NO answers (social scientists did not study emotions separately from psychiatric diagnoses, I discovered), After nine years, I had found answers, tried them for myself, then shared with my psychotherapy clients who volunteered to try them. What I discovered worked for all of us! That led me to discover an entire system for how emotions work, which I’ve been working with, teaching and sharing ever since. Published my book in 2019 (Emotions in Motion: Mastering Life’s Built-in Navigation System), which talks about 12 different emotions. I’ve also developed proprietary understandings and systems for “Outgrowing Manipulation” and “Parenting Consciously.” I’ve been sharing my discoveries with the world for 45 years. I’m now 83 years old, still writing, broadcasting, speaking and appearing on podcasts, spreading the word!

I’m a “Recovered Angry Person,” something I became as a result of my quest to get in charge of anger that spewed from me for nearly two years back in 1971. Already licensed as a Clinical Social Worker and Marriage and Family Counselor, I developed an understanding of what emotions are, what they’re for, and how they work, which I’ve been teaching to myself and thousands of others for the last 45 years. For 27 years I was an International Professional Speaker (NSA member), for 15 years a podcaster (Full Power Living and Building Conscious Families), and now for 54 years a therapist/Counselor/Coach—still working! I published “Emotions in Motion: Mastering Life’s Built-in Navigation System” in 2019 and am currently writing “Outgrowing Manipulation.” Through collaborative books I’m also a nine-time Amazon best-selling author. In April/May of 2026 I spoke at the “Soul Treat” Conference of The Wellness Universe, speaking about “Outgrowing Manipulation.” And for Hawk’s Nest parents (a private school in Jupiter, Florida) I gave a series of talks on “Parenting Consciously,” “Life Tasks for Children’s First Nine Years of Life,” and “Protecting Self-Love.” My husband, neurosurgeon Dr. Robert Fink, died in 2016. In 2017 I sold our home, bought a 24 foot RV and have been roaming North American in that van ever since. I’m mother of 6 adult “children”—2 birth, one adopted, three step—and grandmother of 5. Since 2017 I treated a breast cancer for a year, attempting to heal it (I didn’t heal it; but it did not grow—at all—and was surgically removed without chemo or radiation). I also traveled to Jordan, Egypt, Japan, Viet Nam and Cambodia in 2021 and 2022. I’m an organic veggie/fruit gardener (when I stay in one place long enough), and am an alternative medicine person who, at age 83, takes no prescribed drugs and has only had a cold/flu twice in the past 11 years.
